SCUMbria - Re: "What is with the abusive language?"

When people are full of crap they should be TOLD that they are full of CRAP.

Maybe they will take it to heart and implement some badly needed self-improvement.

SCUMbria - re: 'Debut at 1.6GH Copper Interconnections
.13 micron core "

That confirms exactly what I said !!

AMD has to go to a .13 micron process, copper interconnects, etc. just to compete with Intel's 0.18 micron Aluminum process !!!

And I'm sure that Muskrat - with the new process - will be launched in UNLIMITED VOLUMES - eh, SCUMbria ?

Re: "Sure beats anything on the upcoming market, can we say “Where is Intel”?"

Intel will be there when the Muskrat arrives.

SCUMbria - Re: "Socket A form factor
27+ million transistors
Improved FPU and ALU
Alpha EV6 266MHz Architecture Bus support
Debut at 1.6GH
Copper Interconnections
.13 micron core
128Kb full-speed L1
1.5MB full speed on-die L2 "

Here's a "Heads-UP" for you - a 1.5 Meg L2 cache will ITSELF consume about 72 million transistors (1.5 Million *8*6).

So how does the MuskRAT have only 27+ million transistors ?

Do you spot any inconsistencies here - or am I being too cynical?
